Sure a flush draw out of the BB is a possibility but this is limit holdem. All he can raise you is another big bet. It's a lock you are getting called by the button unless he was jamming it up with top pair and the nut flush draw. Same situation, this is limit poker...you can only lose another big bet. It's not the end of the world.

however, if he didn't have the flush on the river i was hoping that the player behind me would bet, and i could get him to call 1 bet with a weak hand so I could overcall.

And what do you do if the button bets and the BB now check raises and it's two cold back to you? Now here's a situation where goofball mentioned earlier. I don't think BB could check raise bluff two players but I have seen it done in this situation where he could squeeze you out with a good hand that can't beat a straight and that's exactly the hand he had. Betting the river protects you from getting moved off the hand.
